I'm curious about Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.

Do you all think that Sanders would select her for VP? I think it would be a fantastic pick, and the duo would be a pretty powerful one-two punch.

What do you all think?

1. I think you'll hear a lot of "We need her in the Senate" responses

Or "They're both from the liberal NE, so she doesn't balance the ticket"

I think she'd make a great VP

2. Because of Elizabeth Warren's popularity with the base

...she's going to be on the short-list for VP, whoever gets the nomination.

3. As she should be ...

I really hope it's Bernie.

4. He may want to

but she may not want to. She's in a pretty good spot right now. I'll bet there's a quiet offer and a polite refusal.

on edit: I would love that ticket

5. You do know they're from Vermont and Massachusetts, right?

Not a very practical ticket for that reason, imo.

6. I'm not so sure ...

I mean big cities across the nation would still vote for them.

Demographics have changed, and a political paradigm shift is under way. What you say may have been true 10 or 15 years ago, but I think it's quite possible now. And talk about getting motivated to vote for those two. Turn out, as they say, is also important.

7. The Dukakis-Bentsen ticket was about VP contrast and it lost.

Four years later, the Clinton-Gore ticket was about VP reinforcement, and it won.

9. As long as Bernie stands firm on his apathy toward gun control it will not hurt them....

8. My early theory was

That she would jump in late, scoop the Dem nomination and take Bernie as her VP (my sig line)....pretty unlikely now...I think it would be a winning team for real change.

10. Either way, it would be a great ticket.
